DynamoDB Deep Dive: NoSQL for Software Engineers

Congratulations, you have completed the “DynamoDB Deep Dive: NoSQL for Software Engineers” module. 

# Summary
In this module, we’ve done the following:

- We discussed DynamoDB from scratch.
- We have learned about `NOSQL` Databases. 
- We’ve learned about `NOSQL` Databases, and explored the use cases of the `Primary` and `Rangekeys`. We also saw how we could create tables using the AWS console and CLI.

- Most notably, we saw why there is a need for `scanning` data and how we can do that. We also explored the `secondary index` and its types, and saw a demo of using a local secondary index to understand it better.

- We also get to know about `monitoring` DynamoDB and testing CloudWatch Alarm.

- We learned about the vital feature of `access management`, which helps us keep security, and also saw a demo on using it.

- Lastly, we saw the *`best methods`* to use while creating a table, item, or secondary index.


# What's Next?
Now that we’re familiar withDynamoDB and AWS architecture, it’s a good time to practice these concepts. This leads us to our final module, __“AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 Exam Prep.”__
